Pregnancy Calendar with Doodlebug

Hi guys! When I was pregnant with the boys, I kept pregnancy calendars for each of them. I started the first month and recorded important dates and memories until they were born. It was a fun way to document my pregnancies, so I thought I'd create a similar project to share with you. This would make a cute gift for a new mom-to-be, or ... a perfect place to save your own precious memories!
Pregnancy Calendar Scrapbook Pages by Artsy Albums
I designed these with the adorable Bundle of Joy Collection and the Daily Doodles sheets and stickers. They're perfect for this project.

I created the top border by adhering a 2" strip of Bundle of Joy pattern paper across the top.  I added the month stickers and some Odds and Ends to finish the top of each page.

Adding embellishments to the squares was the really fun part. I used mini icon stickers, Sunshine number stickers and some printed journaling spots but you could easily write the important dates and appointments.

I used paper from the 6x6 pad in some of the squares. I think it adds a fun pop of color and pattern to the page. They also make cute mats for small photos!

The shape sprinkles add a little shine and dimension to the page. I love them all but the little bear might be my favorite. He's so cute!!
 
 
If you know someone who's expecting, consider making her a special keepsake that she'll cherish throughout her 9 month journey.  Then once baby is born, she can slip the calendar pages into a 12x12 album to cherish for years to come.

 
Play with Doodle stamps on the pages too! I stamped a few phrases like "baby shower" and "cute as a button" on mine. You could also use the calendar stamps to add the days of the month!
 
I've added the product links below. If you're having a boy or just prefer blue ... I've also added links for the Special Delivery Collection. Happy crafting!
